And Yeshua said to his disciples, “Suppose one of you should go to a friend’s house at midnight and say, ‘Friend, let me borrow three loaves of bread. A friend of mine who is on a trip has just come to my house, and I don’t have any food for him!’ And suppose your friend should answer from inside, ‘Don’t bother me! The door is already locked, and my children and I are in bed. I can’t get up and give you anything.’ Well, what then? I tell you that even if he will not get up and give you the bread because you are his friend, yet he will get up and give you everything you need because you are not ashamed to keep on asking.
And so I say to you: Ask, and you will receive; seek, and you will find; knock, and the door will be opened to you. For those who ask will receive, and those who seek will find, and the door will be opened to anyone who knocks. Would any of you who are fathers give your son a snake when he asks for fish? Or would you give him a scorpion when he asks for an egg? As bad as you are, you know how to give good things to your children. How much more, then, will the Father in heaven give the Holy Spirit to those who ask him!”~Luke 11:5-13
A soul was made by The Creator with an innate desire to know his/her Creator. The Bible reveals the very consistent and rock solid character of YAHWEH, Himself, His reliability and dedication to His beloved children. When we study scripture itself and become acquainted with our Abba in heaven, why would we think that He would not provide and preserve His carefully complete instructions for us? Through fulfillment of prophecy along with archeological evidence and personal revelation we can understand the Bible to be the true reliable measuring rod is was designed to be.
But as for you, continue in the truths that you were taught and firmly believe. You know who your teachers were, and you remember that ever since you were a child, you have known the Holy Scriptures, which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith in Christ Jesus. All Scripture is inspired by God (through the Holy Spirit) and is useful for teaching the truth, rebuking error, correcting faults, and giving instruction for right living, so that the person who serves God may be fully qualified and equipped to do every kind of good deed. ~2 Timothy 3:14-17
In the beginning the Word already existed; the Word was with God, and the Word was God. From the very beginning the Word was with God. Through him God made all things; not one thing in all creation was made without him. The Word was the source of life, and this life brought light to people. The light shines in the darkness, and the darkness has never put it out…..The Word became a human being (Yeshua/Jesus) and, full of grace and truth, lived among us. We saw his glory, the glory which he received as the Father’s only Son. ~John 1:1-5, 14
“I AM the bread of life,” Jesus told them. “Those who come to me will never be hungry; those who believe in me will never be thirsty. ~John 6:35
